Hi, you're right everything can be a battle to start with but you are making massive headway in showing it what you're made of!! You've spoken up about what you've been going through and you have a plan to work through things!!
Now a plan is one step further than you were even before, even before the SI. So you're in an even better position than you were before. A plan is seriously something you can work with and on in moving forward. And it has to help knowing that your bf is more supportive than you'd thought.
Although I'm sure you would have wanted to avoid this happening, it's certainly a situation that lets you know who's truly with you, who truly cares about you. And that has to be so good to know.
So keep on with the talking.......keep on with the sharing............you're not alone.
